Montebello Unified School District

A typical day at work varies, when it's an elementary school assignment, its more fast-paced and you have to be patient with different types of young personalities. In a high school setting, the students are more independent and they will already know what to do so you just have to make sure they are safe, follow rules and help as needed.
I learned ALOT, coming from a place with no educational background I learned pretty much everything a teacher does without the extra paperwork. I also learned to be patient, understanding, gentle, and more sympathetic because you never know what a student may be going through. I learned how to lead young people and manage their time so that they could be successful. 
The hardest part of the job would only be the sprinkle of behavioral challenges from some students in which sometimes I would have to ask for help from the office. Also, the amount of assignments is ambiguous, sometimes there are a lot of postings and other times you have to be glued to your phone in hopes you can snatch a job before someone else does.
Despite that, the job of substitute teaching is rewarding it's great to know that you helped a teacher manage their class when they are gone and make their students have a good day.

A typical day at my internship at Montebello School District consisted of doing research, putting together statistics for eligibility lists, gathering information for the annual report and before leaving I created a leadership skills development plan for the employees district that they could use and add to their support and resources for employees binder. When I was given the chance to shadow a specialist, she showed me how to process prf's, longevity, terminations and salary adjustments. While being there I also learned the typical administrative tasks in the office, as far as assisting the employees with appointments, helping them fill out proper paperwork and scheduling appointments. The hardest part of my job was understanding the whole recruit, selection and hiring process due to the lack of exposure to the whole office. However, I did enjoy learning how eligibility lists work and learning about their rules and policies for the human resources department for classified employees.

What is the best part of working at the company?
The special needs students made it a great experience for me. Special Ed team all they care about is themselves, they don’t appreciate their hard working people trying their best to help and care for students. Horrible District. 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Not being understood by your Sp Ed administration 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
People see for themselves , our district doesn’t care about its workers. We try our best to help and accommodate the special needs students. Somehow District doesn’t see that😡

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Making sure students are well and working with them one on one.

It was an interesting job experience working with adults and it is rewarding as well. The teacher gets to meet new students everyday and learn about their lives and obstacles the student faces. It is great when you see the students earning their certificates and/or their high school diploma and the joy that it brings the students when they have accomplished one of their goals. The hardest part is when the students are not able to hit their goal at the time that they wanted to or leaving because life comes first than their education. One learns a lot from their students and how we as educators are impacting their lives.

Was let go in my 6 mo. probationary period by new principal after a cyber attack for not getting caught up with work which made new principal look bad. Had put in a formal complaint about a coworker harassing me and was told to notify him about further harassment but I think new principal didn't want a "trouble maker" on his new staff. Previous principal had approved me for permanent status after 5 months but she was forced into early retired. Very busy, demanding workload with no support or training for very little pay.

Working for MUSD has been such a great experience.  I have worked a few different assignments with different positions.  Some have been challenging which actually brought out something in me that I love.  I found out that I had a way with troubled teens, found a way to help them interact with each other, helped them talk to administrators in an appropriate manner and helped them with their problems they gained my trust and I gained theirs.

I loved working for MUSD. It became clear the workload would require a fulltime commitment, although I was hired on a part-time basis. I would have stayed had they offered me full-time benefits for the 40hr work week I was doing from the get go. Loved the staff. My director was a little on the micro-management side, but easy to work with. You do have to be quick on your toes, and be a self started to keep up with the older staff. They don't take lightly to slow workers. Teamwork makes the work load feasible.  

What is the best part of working at the company?
I like working on Different projects and learning how the district works 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Peoples character is always a factor but nothing that I can’t handle 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Improving the business structure and improving communication between staff and customers 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Competing deadlines and prioritizing the best possible outcome

Worked for this company for 25 years was a great place to work until events in recent years.  You are responsible for many different positions due to short staffing I was performing four different positions and the workload was overwhelming 10 hour days with no breaks wasn’t uncommon. There is union support if you request and pay for it. 
The students give you the sense of community and drive. Working conditions are horrible.
